Just what we needed
What a lovely home that had everything we needed for a great vacation (despite the weather). This place checked all our boxes: pool, hot tub, basketball net, linens. We loved relaxing on the deck chairs in the morning. The location is perfect- close to everything. Shelley is a wonderful host- quick to respond to our questions. Definitely would stay here again.

Clean and great location
We had a great stay at Don’t Worry Beach Happy! The house is clean, well furnished, and in a great location. We enjoyed walking and biking to the beach and shops with ease. Location is great. The outdoor furniture is fantastic and we loved hanging by the pool and on the multiple decks. Loved the tennis balls and poop bags provided for our furry friend. Pizza from Whalehead Brewery was 10/10. Michelle was responsive and kind. Would highly recommend!

Perfect OBX vacation!
We had a great week at this house! The beach was a short walk away and the pool was perfect in the afternoon. Everything was so well set up for enjoying the outdoors. We spent so much time out on the porches enjoying the breeze. It was so helpful to have beach chairs and a wagon available, since we were traveling with kids and had a lot of stuff. :) The house was also set up well for traveling with pets, with a water bowl and bags for easy clean up when we took her out. Communication with the owner was quick and easy for check in and out. We were very happy with our choice to stay here.

Don't worry beach happy is centrally located in Corolla. You can walk anywhere: shops, restaurants, groceries, beach all within 5 minutes. The house is very clean & Michelle the owner provided everything: towels for kitchen, bath & beach, kitchen & bathroom soap, plenty of beach chairs to name just a few things. The kitchen is well equipped. Communication with Michelle was excellent. Because of the incoming weather at the time of my stay she generously offered to come a day early at no additional cost. My dogs had a blast as well: there is a front and back yard were they could play or just take a nap; they especially loved hanging out on the balcony to observe their surroundings. The house not only had toys/ games for humans of all ages but for animals as well. I just wish I could have stayed another week. It's a heavenly place.

Beach Happy, It was!
Perfect size, well laid out home for our group. The pool was great with lots of room around it. Private backyard. Home had everything we needed. Nice convenient location! After going to Harris Teeter, we parked the truck for the week and went everywhere in our rented golf cart. Hope to stay here, again.

Loved the house - perfect for our two families of 4 (all over 18) and our dog. Shelley is a great hostess and the house was even ready a bit ahead of schedule. Pool area is great and the house is in great shape and in an excellent location 2.5 blocks from the Whalehead beach accesses. Will definitely return. Thanks, Shelley!

Great place for summer vacation w/ family
The house was clean and well appointed with kitchen appliances. Also included nice complimentary additions like coffee, beach towels, and toiletries for showering. We enjoyed the pool and the place was super convenient to shops, restaurants and beach. The only minor complaint was the TV in the master bedroom was located in an odd place and the remote didn't work

Lovely Stay
When we first stepped foot into “…Beach Happy,” we could tell right away it was going to be a nice stay. All the little extras that you might not remember were there to start you off. The hot tub was nice. The pool was great, but very COLD at the end of the season. The only thing I will mention is that you may need a pass to drive on the beach. You may have to purchase that. All in all, our too short of a stay, was quite lovely.
